Kindle earns 64 years in prison

LIMA — A woman who allowed her children to be used in a sex trafficking operation was sentenced Wednesday to 64 years in prison on various charges.

Crystal Kindle, 39, showed great remorse as Allen County Common Pleas Court Judge David Cheney sentenced the Lima woman on charges that included complicity to attempted rate, compelling prostitution, illegal use of a minor in nudity-oriented material and trafficking in persons for hire.

Two of the counts include specifications that tie the charges to human trafficking, as defined by the Ohio Revised Code.
